Paint 98

i've been looking for a paint-esque app and i can't believe i haven't found this sooner!! this also helps SO MUCH with pixel art because the only other app i use for it has SOOO many ads and this has none!!! ((as far as i know, i've only actually used this for like 5 minutes ROFL!)) i also really love the integrations for both mouse and touch use ❤️ i've never actually seen an art app do those like. mouse button things but i think its pretty neat and cool ☺️ anyways idk what else to talk about great app 😊☺️🤩

This app is very well made and emulates a pc feel with very good ui and the accessibility of tools is perfect, as well this it has has zero ads and no purchases from time of use, this painting app is perfect for my desires in 8 bit art, thank you 10/10

If there was one thing I’d like in the app, is sensitivity adjustment for navigating the page. I’m fine with using this odd ‘drag and place’ style, but please make it so that you can go quickly from one side, to the other side super quick. My thumbs are tired

I just realised I still have this app on my iPad and it’s cool

Paint 98 is absolutely fantastic. Simple to use, everything functions exactly as expected when comparing it to MS Paint & is delightful to doodle with. The only reason it’s not 5/5 stars is because of my personal preferences/ideas with experience in other drawing applications. Therefore I will list what I believe should be added to make Paint 98 tick every box. Palm rejection. Whenever I lean my hand on the screen it leaves a frustrating blemish on the canvas since to my knowledge Paint 98 cannot differentiate between hand & Apple Pencil. Preferably there would at least be an option to turn on palm rejection for the sake of my short fuse. Layers. Yes, I am aware the addition could compromise its authenticity since MS Paint also doesn’t have layers either. However due to the fact that I view Paint 98 as a modernised version of MS Paint and am a lazy artist I find it reasonable to request adding layers. I’m not suggesting to the extent of other drawing applications but just the bare basic features that come with any drawing software; rename, alpha lock, selection layers, custom opacity, merging & clipping layers. The ability to toggle whether the entire toolbar is visible or what it currently is; clicking the top left which shows what tool you are currently using to reveal the rest of the toolbar. This is more comparably a suggestion based on my idea. Animation that is similar to FlipNote Studio. Paint 98 already resembles FlipNote studio so why not go one step further & create your own emulation. Custom fps, a bar at the bottom that displays each frame, onion skin etc. This isn’t exactly necessary & is more of my own wish. On iPad there’s something called Quick Note which if used appears as a digital post-it note on the corner of your screen. You can use Quick Note to type or, as I’ve discovered, technically draw. It’s extremely limited but the only option I have for when I want to simultaneously doodle & do other things on my iPad without obvious obstructions since I possess a world record attention span. Hence it would be a daydream come true for Paint 98 to obtain the same ability. I mean being able to not only play Genshin Impact but also scribble funky little illustrations?! Even the thought of it satiates my monkey brain. That’s all pretty much all of what stands out the most to me but nonetheless Paint 98 is still a joy to fidget with & I will always recommend it to anybody that will listen. :) Sincerely, Hazel. <3

People in the reviews are getting mad at the fact that the app isn’t better than MSpaint or any painting tool in the 1998’s but the whole point of it is too simulate the feeling of mspaint and it does that perfectly

Judging by a YouTube vid this seems so good and the cover seems like it would be good THANKS😎😎😎😜😜😜

You don’t draw things by holding the pencil still and moving the paper underneath it. So why make the controls that way in the app? It doesn’t make any damn sense at all and it’s practically impossible to use properly. I was super excited to find this app but it’s a bummer, sorry :(

MS Paint is so old that one would think that a newer program like Paint 98 could improve on MS Paint hands down. It can not even crop a picture! It was taken of my phone quicker than it was installed☹️

Works like ms paint!!! I am in love,, Takes a while to learn some shortcuts but it is perfect!, this def my go to for large scale pixel app! One thing tho,, The undo button undos twice instead of once But that’s about it I LOVE THIS thank u for this developers mwamwa
